Reading Assignment
Lesson 7
Q: Why is it important for a woman to make sure her family appreciates the story of King David?
A: Because it is important to God for them to be a person “after His own heart.”
Here is what we have learned about God, so far:
God does all things in an orderly way (creation and the Bible).
God prophesied the coming of the snake crusher.
God does not tolerate evil.
God has a destructive side.
God loves the righteous and wants to be with them.
God has a protective nature.
God is patient.
God gives us a way to be saved from the destruction of the world.
In this lesson, there are two things we will learn about God that we haven’t seen in previous lessons: 1) He is looking for those who will obey Him (Luke 18:8), and 2) He wants to be the only King (God) in your life. In the 10 Commandments, God says,
“You shall have no other gods before me.
4 “You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. 5 You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me, 6 but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments. (Exodus 20:3-6, ESV)
The focus of this lesson will be on kingship and what that means to God. We will also talk about King David and his relationship with God.
Before David became king of Israel, the people had judges who led them. As we read 1 Samuel 8:4-9, we see that the Israelites rejected God as their King.
Then all the elders of Israel gathered together and came to Samuel at Ramah 5 and said to him, “Behold, you are old and your sons do not walk in your ways. Now appoint for us a king to judge us like all the nations.” 6 But the thing displeased Samuel when they said, “Give us a king to judge us.” And Samuel prayed to the Lord. 7 And the Lord said to Samuel, “Obey the voice of the people in all that they say to you, for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected me from being king over them. 8 According to all the deeds that they have done, from the day I brought them up out of Egypt even to this day, forsaking me and serving other gods, so they are also doing to you. 9 Now then, obey their voice; only you shall solemnly warn them and show them the ways of the king who shall reign over them.” (1 Samuel 8:4-9, ESV)
It makes me sad to read this, because I have no doubt that it hurt God deeply. I used to think, “Oh good, they didn’t reject Samuel! That should make him feel better!” Then I realized what it was really saying. Yes, Samuel’s feelings for himself were spared, but isn’t it much worse to know that they rejected God Who has done way more for them than Samuel – the One Who has done everything for them?
Are we not the same? Do we not remove God from the throne many times during our lifetime? I am so grateful to Him for being patient with us! He loves us and continues to wait for us to seek Him, even though we often fail! (Acts 17:26-27)
Back to the Israelites…
It has taken me years to comprehend the message of 1 Samuel 8 and how it connects with the New Testament. We have God the Father wanting His chosen people to accept Him as their King. However, they want to be like the rest of the world. Instead of giving God what He asked for in the first place, the same thing and more will be required of them by their human king – a man who is only human. These earthly kings will demand that the Israelites give him the best of what they have (the first fruits, their firstborn) plus 10%. (1 Samuel 8:10-18)
In the New Testament, we have the snake crusher being sent by God the Father to become the king of Israel (to fulfill God’s promise to David that his kingdom would stand forever). Jesus, the human form of God, did not just come to earth to be crucified, buried, raised from the grave, and save us from our sins. He came to be enthroned. God made Jesus both Lord and Christ, which we so often miss, because we just see Him as our Savior – not our Lord, our King. Because Jesus fulfilled God’s plan, God placed Jesus at His right hand. Jesus came to put God back on the throne forever! (Acts 2:29-36) From the beginning of time, God has wanted humanity to place Him on the throne as King of their lives. Jesus came to make that possible and we have no excuse to remove Him from that throne!
God and David’s Relationship…
I mentioned earlier that we would discuss King David and his relationship with God, but first I want to ask you a question. What is the one phrase you remember being said about David and what he meant to God? If you said he was a man after God’s own heart, you are correct. (1 Samuel 13:14) The thing is, that phrase is only used about David one time before he became king, but whenever you read David’s writings, you can see how he loved God and wanted to do his best for God. He understood what God wanted, even though he didn’t always do what was required of him as a king. (Deuteronomy 14:17-20). One example of David’s understanding can be found in Psalm 51:16-17 (ESV) –
For you will not delight in sacrifice, or I would give it;
you will not be pleased with a burnt offering.
17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit;
a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.
God wants us to mourn our sins, and to do what He asks of us, not to be blessed by Him, but to be pleasing to Him – out of love and respect for Him. As Christians, our job is to become a person after God’s own heart. Be humble instead of too proud to do His will.
As a homemaker, it is important for you to teach your family how much God desires to be the King (or ruler) of their lives and to be a person after God’s own heart, so that we will be humble enough to do His will.
